To answer the core question regarding how we will deal with the area between the port and where the checking will take place, a traffic management system will be required to do that. A system of automatic number plate recognition will be put in place to ensure that as trucks and other vehicles are leaving the port, we can track how and when they arrive in the area within which they will be checked. If that system is not in place due to the speed with which all this could happen, alternative systems will be put in place to ensure the integrity of the procedures that will operate at the port. I will follow up on the Deputy's comments about Iarnród Éireann's alleged unwillingness to invest in infrastructure that might be needed in order to discover whether there is a need for me to intervene.
